About half way through Book 1 audiobook

I usually listen at bedtime, so it often takes awhile to get through the whole book, but this format in particular is frustrating, with each chapter jumping around. I finally got serious and listened during the day, but wanted to follow each story separately. So, I listened to "Bob's" story first, the one I was most interested in, that of the protocivilization on Delta Eridani.

So my question is: does this story line continue or bleed into any of the other chapters, and how much more of it is covered in subsequent books? No big spoilers, please.

Now,, I'm going back to listen to Riker's journey. Sure wish audible had an option to listen in a custom order.

Galison, Vintage Typewriter (Update, and a mystery)

So I finished this puzzle, and while there were 2 missing pieces, there were also 2 extra pieces.

Any ideas where these pieces go?

Ugh, this one is soooo hard!! Thankfully, the box image shows the actual pieces shapes, else I may have already abandoned it.

I normally avoid shaped puzzles, but this one was too interesting to pass up ($1.49 thrift find, hope all the pieces are there). Great colors and detail. Too many weird pieces and lots that dont hold together well at all, quite a challenge.

I finally found my perfect puzzle

Absolutely no stress while doing it. No dust. No weird/false fits. Pieces held together enough to move small sections intact. Beautiful colors, and the best part: the textures from the fabrics/threads.

And, a thrift store $1.49 buy with no missing pieces. I'm afraid I will never find another so perfect.

New suggestions. I've seen everything.

I read through this sub, looking for titles I may not have heard of. Then I watch to see if it hooks me within 10-15mins. If not, I go onto the next. I do this til I have started a dozen or so shows. Then, after a few days pass, I examine whether I am still thinking about any of those shows. Usually, there will be one that I keep returning to.

But it isnt working right now. I think I've either seen or started almost everything! I have Netflix, Hulu, Prime, Apple, MGM+, Starz, and HBO. There is literally *tons* of stuff available. And I keep jumping around. My current rotation: Hacks, Barry, The Shield, Fringe, The Red King, London Gangs, Bodkin, Heaven/Dublin, and a dozen other international titles I cant think of. Im about to just start rewatching things that Ive loved (Deadwood, Rome, Breaking Bad, The Wire, Slow Horses, etc etc etc)

Try and name a great show that I havent yet either seen or at least started.

*Oh, I forgot about Amadeus on Starz. The Tom Hulce film is one of my all time favorites, so I was, er, skeptical of Will Sharpe in the title role. And no F. Murray Salieri?!? But it is surprisingly good, and I dont want to watch it all too quickly.

Edit: while I'm open to any/all genre, I tend towards dark and serious, and def not rom/com type stuff.
